Copyright, 1800, by Seymour Eaton. —_— e FAMOUS ART GALLERIES OF THE WORLD. i L The/great art centers of Italy are Flor- ence, Venice and Rome: but to the stu- dent of art there are invaluable esson to be learned in many of the ser Ital- ian cities, such as Assisi, Pisa, Sien Orvieto, Milan, Parma, Man and Padua. Tn fact, all italy might be called a vast treasure house of art, and to the student and historian who wishes to o tain a just and adequate view of the d velopment of Italian art the old towns mentioned, and possibly others besid afford indispensable data, more often to be found in churches and convents than in picture galleries. Florence is one the most remarkable art capitals of world. It is crowded with masterpie of painting. sculpture and architecture to a degree that is amazing. Its chief mu- seums of art are the Uffizi and the Pitti. The Uffizi Gallery, which originated with the Medici coll ns, to which many ditions were made by the Lorraine fam- ily, is now in extent and value one of the first in the world. The Tribune is a room in which are brought together the most sculpture and painting in an extraordinary galax: ictures in this group include Ra Madonna With the Goldfinch, * “The Fornarina, ose During the Madonna t, <" A Prelate,” eic examplés of Mantegna, A.

It takes us back to the birth of the art, more than six centuries ago.

But to et a more complete idea of what Giotto stood for in the history of school we must o to Assisi. more th 100 miles sucth of Florence. It is in such nooks that ove often finds the most beau- tiful products of Italian art. In the solemn old convent of the Franciscans at Assisl Giotto painted on the walls a _not- able series of scenes from the life ‘nf the gentje saint that founded it. Giotto's first Wwork was done here in the upper church. and consists of twenty-eight frescoes. all from his own designs, and several entirely painted by hig own hand. The church is now used as a museum of Tuscan fres- coes, Gictto, In honoring St. Francis. did not forget to tmmortalize upon these walls one of the most lovable traits of the monk | —his well-known affection for birds—and egend of the saint's ser- e e R e hiras I set forth with ra sympathy. The gentleness and Kindness of the saint's attitude, his gesture, care- fully restrained lest a sudden movement might alarm his timi 1ditors. are most charming. and the simplicity and direct- ness of the work are admirable. In the lower church, begun in 1228, a somber edifice, are some of the greatest master- pleces of Cimabue and Giotto and some of the leading painters of central Italy Giotto's in this lower church of si con- sists of four large paintings, which oc- the triangular spaces in the vault cups above the high altar; and these were done in the later years of his life. Hither- to we have seen him illustrating incident: | but here he enters a broader field and describes principles in the form of the three cardinal virtues of the Franciscan order—Poverty, Chastity and Obedience— | by which iIs inculeated the duty of the followers of the saint to labor without reward, pleasure or freedom. These works are aptly representative of the symbolical art which the early Tuscan painters so brillfantly developed, and are the ablest achievements of Giotto. | Glotto has left traces of himself from Naples all the way to Padua. He went to the latter town to visit his friend Dante, who was in exile there. and he docorated the little church of Our Lady | of the Arena with frescoes from the life | of Christ, which series ended. in the fash- fon of the time, with a picture of the last | judgment and of hell, full of Dantesque fancies made visible. These frescoes are Very curlous. One represents the betraval | of Christ, to whose face the artist has | given a striking expression of reproach. | Shile he has favored Judas with one of | the meanest countenances Known to art. | The sense of a large crowd is well ex- | ssed: the tumult, confusion and flight g{fithn disciples. Rut the best work in the | old_church Padua is the “Entomb- a ent.” an_admirable comnosition. in which the faces express a keen and ab- touch here in his delineation of angels joining n the lamentations of men.

It is built around twenty courts and contains 11000 rooms, of which the greater pe occupied as collection and show rooms, and comparatively few by the Papal court, The building’s chief inteérest for us is in the representation it makes of the greatese of the Italian painters, whom the weaith and power of the church drew hither for the decoration of its shrines and palaces. Rome had no painters of her own-the stream that fed her flowed down from ence, Siena and Umbria, bringing with it on successive floods Gilotto, Fra Angelico, Botticelli, gnorelli, erugine and, at the last simultaneou apha: and’ Michael Angelo. All of these, save Giotto, left their marks upon the walls of the Vatican, which thus becomes the greatest storehouse in the world of th Christian art of the fifteenth and teenth centuries. The work of Michael angelo is confined to the ceiling and end wall of the Sistine chapel, the private place of worship of the Popes. The sides of the chapel are deco- rated with masterly works by the earlier artists of the renaissance—Perugino, the Umbrian master: Botticelli, the Floren- tine. and Signorelli of Cortona. whose greatest achievement Is to be seen at Or- vieto. First wdre painted here the leading events in the life of Moses; later were de- picted the baptism of Christ. the sermon on the mount ard othier incidents in t life of Jesus.
